Adjusting Brightness

Incorrect brightness settings may result in illegible scans and
adversely affect the quality of data capture.

ABBYY Business Card Reader can tune brightness automatically. To
enable automatic brightness selection, in the scanning dialog box,
select Auto in the Brightness field. If the
automatically selected values do not work for your business cards,
adjust the brightness manually by moving the slider in the
Brightness field.

Note:

If Auto is selected, the slider in the Brightness
field is disabled. To be able to adjust the brightness manually,
clear the Auto option.

Some scanner models do not allow automatic brightness
selection. If this is the case, the Auto will not be
available and you will need to adjust the brightness manually using
the slider in the Brightness field.

If the resulting image contains too many defects (e.g. some of
the letters are too thin and sketchy or, conversely, too thick and
appear to be glued together), consult the table below to improve
the legibility of your text.
